    With the recent events in the trans community, I wanted to make sure that everybody is aware of this hotline. (translifeline.org) There are times when typing is not able to get across how you are feeling, or you just want to hear somebody else's voice that has gone through what you are going through.

    Also, if you are feeling suicidal, please reach out to somebody. It could be one of the staff members here, a trusted friend/family member/school worker (ect) or a hotline. The important thing is that you reach out, and seek the support that you need while you are having these feelings.

    Hugs to you all during this time (*hug*)

    Good to know, I guess there must be something like this here in Europe. People here mentioned the Samaritans (uk).
    Thanks, Brad :thumbsup:

    This is a resource for australia:
    LGBTIQ support services | ReachOut.com Australia

    With keywords like transgender helpline you may find support from your country...
    there might even be good sources for lgbt related information or help.

    I think the Trans Lifeline has reached Canada recently, which is fantastic.
